Nail Detox
Last month I gave my nails a nail detox. Now you may be wondering what that means and thats what I am going to explain to you in this blog post. I think it's really important to care for your nails as much as you would for your face. This is why I decided to give my nails a detox, no nail polish for a month. This allowed my nails to breath and repair as they were quite damaged.
Now you may be wondering why you would need a detox for your nails.Well, because, if like me, you are a fan of having your nails done, either with gel, shellac, acrylic or just normal polish, then you will know that your nails can be damaged, and if we constantly redo our nails for an extended period of time then they have no time to breath and grown healthily. For one month no polish or any thing coating your nails, let them breath and you will see a difference in your nails. I recommend doing this at least 3 times a year to make sure your nails stay healthy.
I hope this has helped you out, and you have found out something new. Remember, your nails are just as important as your skin.

Christmas Gift Guide for Her- 2015 Edition
With Christmas just around the corner, I thought it would be time to write another gift guide. This year I have put together 4 gift guides for you guys. One for Her and Him and then an under £25 for Him and Her. They will be going up this week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Kicking everything off, is the gift guide for her. I have lined up 10 gifts, that I think will make happy most girls. If you want more ideas you can always check out my last two gift guides, which will be linked here and here. So, without any further ado let's get started.
Acqua Di Parma Gift Sets - £74
I think these gift sets are great value for money as you get a 50ml perfume, body wash and body cream. All for the price of one 50ml perfume. I personally love Acqua di Parma as I think they have great scents and last a very long time.
This is the perfect gift for any girl who loves make up and beauty, but has everything. It is a really princess product. Something that is not a necessary, but will make them very happy. They do have a very good range and a few different formulas. But if you are ever in doubt, then go for the signature Louboutin red.
Valentino Card Holder - £190
Card holders are so useful as you can slot them in any handbags. Fits most of your cards. Great for any girl looking for something a little unique this Christmas.
Givenchy Makeup Bag - £240
For a make-up lover that wants to add a little luxury to her make up bag. This is the perfect gift. I love this make-up bag. It's stylish and yet fun at the same time with Bambi on the front.
Apple Watch - £299 - £13,500
For any tech/apple lovers this is the perfect gift. This can be as expensive as you wanted it to be. With the sports edition starting at £299. Spices things up a little.
Neon Candles - £8 - £295
Something perfect for candle lovers, mums, aunts or any older family members. Wonderful scent pay off and organic as well. Perfect.
Fendi Keyring - £260
Perfect for any new drivers out there. Something to go on your bag or on a set of keys. Spice up your keys with this keyring.
Whether it's a notebook or a diary these are for any stationery lover out there. Outstanding quality.
These are perfect gifts for younger people you know. Perfect snuggle in. Victoria Secrets makes really lovely Pjs. Great for any occasion.
Chloe Faya Bag - £865
These have been everywhere this year. Really classy and easy to style. You would make any girl happy with a nice handbag.
Well that brings us to the end of the Gift guide for her. Check back on Wednesday 5pm (GMT) for my Gift Guide for Him.
I hope this gave you some gift ideas for the special ladies in your life.

Seasonal Favourites- Autumn Edition
As autumn is coming to a close it is time for me to share with you my favourites, of the last 3 months. For those of you who haven't seen my other seasonal favourites, then you can check them out here. But without further ado let's get started.
The Body Shop Body Butter
I have recently rediscovered this moisturiser. I have been using it in the Moringa scent which is really floral and fresh. Great to use in the morning as it is not to greasy. I found it to be really hydrating, which I love. Prefect for the colder months.
Acqua Di Parma perfume
I was given a sample of this perfume a few months ago, and fell in love with the scent. So, recently I received a full size as a gift from a close friend of mine. I have been wearing it so much, it is the prefect scent of autumn/winter. Mine is in the scent magnolia nobile. It is an amazing scent. Love it.
Essie Nail Polish
I love Essie nail polishes in general and these few months my favourites have been Bahama Mama and Chinchilly, which I actually got in a set. They are the types of colours I like to wear in the colder months. Ether dark berry and red or grey/mushroom colour. Love them, they last on me for a week without any chips.
Chanel Les Beiges All In One Healthy Glow
This is a perfect base if you want a really light coverage tinted moisturiser. I love it, it just evens everything out, giving you a flawless finish. It also smells amazing.
Urban Decay Primer Potion
In my last monthly favourites I included this product as well, but today instead of Sin, I will be taking about Eden. I have been loving it recently, unlike Sin it is a matte primer with a bit of coverage. It evens out your eyelids if you have any veins you can see, it also keeps you eyeshadow in place all day. It's so good. Love it.
Dior Eye Reviver Backstage pro Palette
I have a whole review on this product on my blog which I will link here sharing with you my thoughts, on this product. Recently I have been reaching for it a lot, because it has some really nice colours to create a really neutral look. To add a little more, you can use the darker colours from the palette.
Dior Art Pen.
I ran out of my last eyeliner, so I thought I would try out something new. I love this eyeliner so much as it has a very long thin brush, perfect for doing a really thin or thick line. It is also super black which is great. Fabulous eyeliner.
Sephora Lip Gloss
I have fallen in love with their lip gloss in the shade Rose petal. It is the perfect your lips but better colour. Perfect everyday lip gloss. Super easy to apply and really comfortable to wear.
Mac Lip Pencil
I have been wearing this lip liner with a lipstick I will share with you in a moment. It's easy to apply and lasts for a long time. You could just apply the lip liner and clear gloss and you would be good to go. Really nice product.
Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick
I absolutely love this lip gloss stick. I have it in the shade Raplumzel which is a lovely berry colour. Perfect to add a little colour to the lips.
Co Lab Dry Shampoo
I love this dry shampoo, it's super cheap.Works amazing. Does the job really well. Perfect for when you just don't have time to wash your hair. Highly recommend.
Thats all guys. I hope you enjoyed this blog post. Next week I will be posting Monday and Wednesday, Friday, all at 5pm( GMT ). Stay tuned for some very exiting stuff coming your way.

Becky's Product Reviews- Louboutin Nail Polish
I was lucky enough to receive this exquisite Rouge Louboutin Nail Polish nail polish for Christmas and I have been trying it out since. Want to know my thoughts on it? Keep reading.
This is the most exciting and different nail polish packaging I have ever seen. You may think that the long applicator may be annoying. In fact it's actually useful as makes painting your nails easier, because it feels like you are holing a paint brush. Now let's talk about the actual product itself. You can easily get away with just one coat but I always apply two as it provides a really lovely thick opaque colour, very easily. After painting my nails I did not feel the need to add a top coat as this nail polish left your nails really shiny and they lasted around 7 days before I feel I needed to redo them. Overall this is a fabulous nail polish, it's a great present idea and also a great treat for all you nail polish lovers out there. However if you do not feel like spending so much money on a nail polish then don't worry there are some great cheaper nail polishes out there for you . This nail polish retails for £36.
Overall I would rate this product a 4.5/5 just because of its hefty price tag.
See you all next week same time, same place Wednesdays 5pm (GMT)
Becky xoxo
